Energy storage in state-owned enterprises in the next five years

Are energy storage investors moving to state-owned enterprises (SOEs)?

This implies a major shift in energy storage investors to state-owned enterprises (SOEs) from power grid companies such as China Energy, Huaneng, Huadian, and State Power Investment Corporation (SPIC) .

Which energy storage technology is adopted in state 1?

In State 1, the firm operates the first energy storage technology, which is adopted at time τ1. The second energy storage technology is not yet available in that state. The expected value of the first energy storage technology, including the embedded option, is Φ 1 (P).

Why is the energy storage industry important?

Under dual-carbon targets, the development of the energy storage industry is of strategic significance for building a new energy system, improving the energy structure, ensuring energy supply, and promoting the low-carbon transition in China (He et al., 2023; Lee et al., 2023).

What is the value of energy storage technology?

Specifically, with an expected growth rate of 0, when the volatility rises from 0.1 to 0.2, the critical value of the investment in energy storage technology rises from 0.0757 USD/kWh to 0.1019 USD/kWh, which is more pronounced.

What is the expected value of a second energy storage technology?

The expected value of the first energy storage technology, including the embedded option, is Φ 1 (P). In State (1,2), the second energy storage technology arrives with a Poisson process, and the firm invests in the second technology at the optimal time. The investment opportunity value of the second energy storage technology is F1,2 (P).

When will energy storage technology be commercialized?

By 2025, the large-scale commercialization of new energy storage technologies 1 with more than 30 GW of installed non-hydro energy storage capacity will be achieved; and by 2030, market-oriented development will be realized .
